Packers' Cobb ties NFL record with 108-yard kickoff-return TD

Packers rookie Randall Cobb tied an NFL record Thursday night with a 108-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against the New Orleans Saints, helping give his team an edge in Green Bay's 42-34 win at Lambeau Field.

Cobb took the third-quarter kick and was hit around the Packers' 23-yard line, where he spun, was able to keep his balance and took off again.

"It was amazing," Cobb said. "The feeling of being in Lambeau Field and just having all of the guys around me coming off of the Super Bowl and just trying to do anything I can to contribute, and I certainly tried to make the most of my opportunities tonight."

Cobb went against coach Mike McCarthy's orders by returning a kick from that deep in his own end zone, but he claimed to receive divine instruction.

"I was just trusting in God," Cobb told USA Today. "He told me to bring it out. I'm not supposed to bring that out. Some things are logical and some things are just the power of God."
